I use voip a lot for gaming. TS, Vent, Mumble, Skype, etc. I've probably had 20 headsets in my day and have settled on the fact that USB headsets, while convenient and easier to set up, suck. They have the tendency to go "all computery and ****". Especially if you are uploading and downloading stuff. <div>Not sure what you are using, but try swapping to an 3.5mm instead of usb. 2 of my favorite "budget friendly" headsets are the Senheisser PC151 and the Logitech G330. The Sennheiser has a better mic, but is also pretty fragile. I've broken several of them by leaning back in my computer chair and putting strain on the cord. The logitechs are normally pretty good for money and long as you don't get the really crappy ones from Walmart. And I always buy from Newegg.</div><div>
